Then you know where hengals is on 210 that's where I was told about it. I will try to call today and make sure. I also heard the size is about the size of a piece of charcoal. Oh ya I used to live just south of Brainerd now moved up by pine river.

Called today what they have is owned by the railroad they must have it from that train derailment. My friend was told by a guy about the coal who is friends with two guys from Burlington Northern so maybe they are the ones who's have acces to it. Hengals won't sell any.

I got mine from a Triad mine at Freelandville.  There was another mine a called a little east of here south of Cannelburg that said they would sell too.  I don't have a phone number for Triad.  I just drove up to the office.  I had to go through 3 phone transfers to get a person in Cannelburg.  Sorry I don't have any contact info!
